地點: 緬甸
The gold mining on the Kok River in Mong Yawn has expanded in recent months, and locals say it is now being carried out 24 hours a day.
There are four main Chinese companies carrying out the mining, employing over 300 workers, who are mostly Chinese. They are mining on the hills and along the riverbanks, as well as using dredging boats on the river itself.
The mining residue, including toxic gold extraction chemicals such as cyanide, is flowing directly into the Kok River. This is causing water turbidity and pollution. Locals are too afraid to use the water for domestic consumption, and there are few fish left in the river.

《從霧霾到砷污染：泰國跨境污染引發不滿加劇》泰國公共電視台，2025年4月19日
發源於緬甸，流經泰國清邁與清萊的郭河（Kok River）與賽河（Sai River）近期被檢測出砷含量超標，引發沿岸社區對生命健康的嚴重擔憂。
上月，在清邁府美艾縣（Mae Ai）三個不同地點采集的郭河水樣中，砷含量遠超安全標准。
公眾普遍認為有毒重金屬污染的源頭來自上游緬甸由中國企業經營的金礦。
清邁與清萊府的學者和民間組織代表強烈批評政府未能系統性應對緬甸多個露天礦區帶來的跨境污染問題。
民間團體已聯合提交請願書，敦促泰國總理緊急應對兩條河流的污染問題。該地區的河水是約120萬泰國居民的主要自來水水源，同時維系著數千戶家庭的生計。
